One of the biggest UK network operator and phone giant O2 have announced two major changes that will certainly delight their customers and make the company even more competitive in the telecom industry.

Starting from later this month, O2 will start selling all of their available new handsets completely unlocked, which means that all of their phones can be used with any network, giving customers full liberty and flexibility that they didn’t have before.

We can finally say goodbye on any restrictions on phone unlocking when it comes to buying new gadgets.

Existing customers don’t need to worry either since there will be now an easy way to unlock their phones via the My O2 app easy and completely free of charge.

Another great offer coming from this operator is the new Family Plan enrolling by the end of the month that will allow subscribers 50% discounts on their services to up to 20 connections. Customers that will add new connections can actually chose from any 'Sim Only' or 'O2 Refresh Pay Monthly' subscription with unlimited minutes and texts on tariffs over 1GB.

Among the features that will be available in the family plans are the smart filters that can be set to children phones to limit or block certain games and apps as well as balancing screen time across multiple devices.

To make the payment process even easier and hassle free, the customers will receive just one monthly bill for all of the used services that can be payed and managed through the official O2 app.
